    hardly any glock is accurate out of the box. by the time you buy and replace all the parts to make it more accurate and reliable you might as well have bought an H&K or a SIG.

    my most hated gun ever was a llama 1911 .45 that gun felt like a toy hammer. it rattled and i hated it. POS

    HS 2000...got it around 1999 for $250 new. Sucked, got bad reviews, they couldn't sell them. Place I bought it from said they would never stock them again.
    Springfield Armory bought it, just changed the name and pumped tons of money into advertising and SHAZAM! The XD is the greatest gun ever! Now the place I originally bought it from love the HS 2000...I mean XD.

    A lot of people have a hard time going from an American gun (slab side or revolver) to a Glock with its fancy European angles!

    Century G-3. Sight is crooked, bolt gap too small, dealer is a crook and wouldn't make it right. Still have the damn thing as I can't bring myself to unload it on anyone else.

    Taurus Titanium 850...the dumb thing jammed on me twice...was repaired twice...jammed again...finally traded the stupid thing...new buyer had it jam on him as well...glad I gave it up...can you imagine...a revolver that jammed every time you tried to fire it? Being titanium...it wasn't even valuable if you threw it b/c it was too light!!! Piece of crap Taurus. :noway:

    Thank the Lord Ruger brought out their LCR...GREAT REVOLVER...shoots every time...accurate as heck...and lighter too!!! You just can't beat those Ruger Revolvers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rockwoot:

    I'm another guy that was disappointed with a Browning Citori. It was a nice shotgun but I couldn't hit squat with it. Replaced it with an SKB which I can shoot well.

    Easy question. Ruger Mini-14. Not just one. I went through several. Accuracy not up to my expectations. Jam-o-matic with all aftermarket mags I tried (Ruger at that time did not sell full-capacity factory mags). I like the Garand. I like the M1 Carbine. I really wanted to like the Mini-14, but it was not to be.

    I have a ruger mini 14. Its been such a long time since I've shot it, I can't remember if I like it or not. Thought about seeing what I could get on trade for an AR though....

    Only guns I've been very disappointed in where my brothers Mini-14 it never seemed to shoot a entire mag of anything and his first Beretta 92fs, FTF, FTL, stovepipes, you name it, all bad. Never seen another Beretta 92 that bad off.

    I've owned a Llama 1911 and own a Lorcin .22. I can't say either were disappointing because my expectations were realistic for both of them, and now after 10 years of lube and love, the Lorcin is a nice little gun that feeds reliably and is dead accurate at short distance.

    I love my LCP and my Glock, different strokes and all that, and I "get" why people don't like Glocks for several reasons, but I can't understand how a LCP "kicks like a mule" It's incredibly light on kick for a tiny polymer gun, mine is a damn tack driver, wouldn't give it up for the world.

    Would have to say a AMT automag II. Was always fond of the .22 mag, so picked one up used at a gunshow. It was very picky on the ammo I fed it, then when I tore it down the one time to clean, somehow lost the small crimped in ball that sits on top of the slide release without realizing it. Next time out with it, the slide would lock back after each shot unless I rode it with my thumb . After realizing what the problem was and getting another one, it ran fine then except all the FTF's.

    Same here. I've had problems with every AMT I've ever owned.

    My Automag-II, and both "Police Backups" in 380ACP were especially bad.
    FTF, F, or E at least once per mag,... and you need a hydraulic jack to pull the $#^*!ng trigger!

    AMT's pistols have just about everything you could ask for; nice workmanship, the right material (all stainless), good design, they're little gems .... but they simply refuse to run 100%! :n00b:


    Tha newer Backup in 45 ACP might be better,... who knows. Kinda doubt it though.

    Remington Peerless O/U - 12 g - 26" barrels -- I own a ton of Remingtons and all of them have been reliable - flawless actually!! - however this one misses the 2nd shot every once in awhile - of course only while hunting and never @ the range. And unfortunately -- yes - I need the 2nd shot sometimes! :)!!

    I really like remington, but after my brother bought his model 7 in 22-250 I have had other thoughts. He has spent a lot on different types of bullets trying to get one to shoot decent. Notice I didn't say shoot good. The best group he has ever got out of it was just under three inches. I've tried to get a good group shooting it but I seem to do worse with it then him. I was looking at a remington 799 in .222 Remington a while back but the issue with the model seven keeps creeping into my mind. I do not want to have to deal with a gun that just will not group.

    I had a S&W 9ve...very dis-satisfied, not only did it have a heavy trigger pull, but I also didnt like the fact that it had no safety other than the trigger, I like a hammer and a safety on my semi-auto handguns, thats why i got a taurus pt101
    i agree i had s&w 9ve i took to the range that used to be in mooresville i shot terrible groups with it i thought it was me at first until my son let me shoot his xd9.
